The Lord’s Plan to Save
His plan involves doing for us what we cannot do for ourselves.
His plan involves judgment on the unrepentant
In order for God to completely save us, He has to remove certain elements.
His judgment is righteous toward the ones being judged, but also beneficial to those who receive the benefits of His salvation.
His plan involves redemption for the repentant
Please note that God plans a covenant where for all generations who trust the Lord, He will live forever in them.
